Ultra Wideband Wireless Communication

An international panel of experts provide major research issues and
a self-contained, rapid introduction to the theory and application
of UWB

This book delivers end-to-end coverage of recent advances in both
the theory and practical design of ultra wideband (UWB)
communication networks. Contributions offer a worldwide perspective
on new and emerging applications, including WPAN, sensor and ad hoc
networks, wireless telemetry, and telemedicine. The book explores
issues related to the physical layer, medium access layer, and
networking layer.

Following an introductory chapter, the book explores three core
areas:
* Analysis of physical layer and technology issues
* System design elements, including channel modeling, coexistence,
and interference mitigation and control
* Review of MAC and network layer issues, up to the
application

Case studies present examples such as network and transceiver
design, assisting the reader in understanding the application of
theory to real-world tasks.

Ultra Wideband Wireless Communication enables technical
professionals, graduate students, engineers, scientists, and
academic and professional researchers in mobile and wireless
communications to become conversant with the latest theory and
applications by offering a survey of all important topics in the
field. It also serves as an advanced mathematical treatise;
however, the book is organized to allow non-technical readers to
bypass the mathematical treatments and still gain an excellent
understanding of both theory and practice.

HÜSEYIN ARSLAN, PhD, is Assistant Professor at the
University of South Florida. Dr. Arslan's research interests center
on advanced signal processing techniques at the physical layer,
with cross-layer design for network adaptivity and quality of
service control. He worked at Ericsson Research for about five
years and continues his close relations with wireless industries as
a consultant and with university sponsored research.

ZHI NING CHEN, PhD, is Adjunct Professor in the
Electromagnetics Academy at Zhejiang University, China and at the
National University of Singapore. Dr. Chen is also Lead Scientist
at the Institute for Infocomm Research.

MARIA-GABRIELLA DI BENEDETTO, PhD, is Professor of
Telecommunications at the University of Rome La Sapienza, Italy.
Dr. Di Benedetto is active in fostering the development of UWB
telecommunication systems in Europe and is the Director at Infocom
for two European IST projects.
